12 Mile-Woodward in Berkley to re-open Tuesday

The intersection of 12 Mile Road and Woodward Avenue in Berkley is scheduled to re-open about noon Tuesday after it was closed all of Monday due to a water main break.

A 4-inch water main broke about 1 a.m. Monday on 12 Mile west of Woodward, the city said in a notice on its website. Both directions of 12 Mile were closed while public works crews worked to repair the break.

Repairs were completed by 9:30 a.m. but 12 Mile remained closed to allow crews to complete related road repairs, according to the notice.

The break resulted in a hole close to 10 feet across and 10 feet deep.

About 20 utility customers including Roselawn Park Cemetery, a strip mall on Woodward and one dozen homes were impacted by the break, city officials said.
